Re: Oh, no!
Picture #6 with the family could be my wife's grandpa, grandma, aunt, and uncle or dad in the T on the prairie North of Newell, SD. Down to the plug in the side where the top bracket would fit. However, it looks high hood and theirs was an April 23 car.

Re: Oh, no!
Photo #9 appears to be a "1919" pillarless coupe. Can one assume it has electric start since there are no cowl lamps? This is the second such "1919" coupe I have observed in Tom's posts. Thanks Tom. I enjoy your photos!!!

Re: Oh, no!
The flat roofed ton truck is interesting. It appears to have a 1914 front seat assembly crafted into it. Perhaps they bought it in shassis form and then did their own thing with what they had.

Re: Oh, no!
The first pic looks like one of the 1920's versions of the 1970's "Pre-Prom Don't Drink And Drive" efforts, put on at the football field the week before prom by the local police and sheriff's departments.
Always some cheerleaders and football players performing as dead people in the scene. About as effective as Christmas Nativity scenes. (Although I don't recall any of our local high schoolers ever ACTUALLY dying in a car wreck on prom night, so maybe some of the kids actually paid attention.)
(But we got out of class for it, so it wasn't a total loss.)

Wow! #12. How early is that? Looks like the dawn of T time.
Forget everything you thought you knew.
